So you're on Maui this Labor Day weekend, consider yourself something of a foodie and, maybe, feel like noshing on some of the best cuisine on the island?

Plan on a visit to the second annual Kaanapali Fresh, a three-day series of culinary events at the hotels and resorts of the Kaanapali Beach Resort, dedicated to showcasing the food and produce of Maui.

You could spend Saturday morning browsing the locally-grown produce at a Maui farmers market steps from the beach at Kaanapali. Near lunch, tour a working West Maui coffee farm. And your plans for the evening? On Friday, Saturday AND Sunday, how about tasting events featuring stellar dishes from Maui’s top chefs and farmers?

Attend all of the Kaanapali Fresh events or pick and choose.

This year’s festival includes a special edition of the weekly Grown on Maui Farmers Market at Whalers Village shopping center at Kaanapali Resort, featuring local farmers, food producers and chefs; a tour of the Kaanapali Estates coffee farm; and a mixology class at the Royal Lahaina Resort where guests can learn the art of crafting cocktails using local ingredients.

The main events of Kaanapali Fresh, however, will be its evening tasting galas, which include:

• Progressive Kaanapali: “A Double Culinary Grande with a Shot of Jake,” 6-9:30 p.m. Fri., Aug. 30A progressive dinner beginning at the Westin Maui Resort & Spa and ending at the Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa with an outdoor live performance by ukulele virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro.
